Two suspects tried to rob a Brinks armored truck at a Regions Bank branch at 4383 Summer Ave. in the Berclair neighborhood shortly after 2 p.m. Friday, Memphis police posted on Twitter.

The police department said shots were exchanged, but no one was hit. It wasn't immediately clear who fired the shots or if the robbers got away with any money. A description of the suspects wasn't immediately available.

Authorities had blocked off access to the bank and a Brinks truck was still visible outside.

Police later said one of the two suspects was detained, while they were still seeking the other one.
